Marvel Teases Dark X-Men

And I don’t really care anymore…

It’s actually a cool idea, but with every title and character in Marvel’s stable getting a “dark” counterpart or a Dark title, it’s just too much.

Dark Avengers would have been cool—if it had not already been done in Thunderbolts.

Having said that, the cast/mystery of the Dark X-Men image is more intriguing, because I don’t know who they all are.

Wolverine is obviously Daken (Wolverine’s son).

Angel is probably Mimic (hence the big M on his costume).

Namor (Marvel’s first mutant).

The guy with the Omega symbol could be Weapon Omega from Alpha Flight. He’s got an X-Men connection and the outfit looks similar.

The remaining one have me stumped. Any ideas?

Dagger, I don’t think is the real Dagger. With a series coming from blogger Valerie D’Orazio, it seems she would be “off the table.”

Cloak – doesn’t really look like Cloak and he never has his hood down.

Black Queen – They want you to think Emma Frost, but they’ve established her as a hero lately. I’d hate to see them reverse that.

The last thing not revealed by Marvel, is where these “heroes” will appear. No title was given. My guess is the X-Men/Avengers crossover.
